Vision conditions improved with prescription glasses

The most common conditions treated with prescription eyeglasses are refractive disorders. These disorders afflict more than 150 million Americans, and professional diagnosis is of the utmost importance because many people do not even know they have such a condition. Detection is the first step toward correcting refractive conditions, which include nearsightedness (myopia), farsightedness (hyperopia), astigmatism, and presbyopia (age-related farsightedness).

Myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism all share a root cause: an improperly shaped or curved eyeball — though in the case of astigmatism, the eye’s lens rather than the cornea may be abnormally curved. Since an improper curve bends (or refracts) light the wrong way, it cannot be correctly focused onto the light-sensing retina to yield good vision. As a result, patients may have trouble focusing at various or multiple distances.

Presbyopia, on the other hand, is a refractive error that occurs due to the natural deterioration of ocular tissues resulting from the inescapable aging process.

Additionally, prescription glasses can improve vision for patients with earlier-stage cataracts, which are caused by an age-related breakdown of proteins in the eye’s lens.
